VIOLENCE/GORE 5 - A number of men are shot, most with a shotgun. Some blood is visible. A man is run over with a car, after he's been shot to death. A man slaps a woman. And, a woman blows herself up after she lights a lighter in a gas filled room. Cops threaten a man with a gun.
LANGUAGE 6 - A substantial number of F-words and various F-word derivatives.
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Crime, divorce, prostitution, cold-blooded murder, desperation, drug-abuse, counterfeit money.

CAVEATS
Be aware that while we do our best to avoid spoilers it is impossible to disguise all details and some may reveal crucial plot elements.
We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and older reviews are not as complete & accurate as recent ones; we plan to revisit and correct older reviews as resources and time permits.
Our ratings and reviews are based on the theatrically-released versions of films; on video there are often Unrated, Special, Director's Cut or Extended versions, (usually accurately labelled but sometimes mislabeled) released that contain additional content, which we did not review.
Civil War - 1.7.10
The First Omen - 6.9.5
Monkey Man - 6.9.9
